Zbroia Kozak 177 arrived today

[shutik]

Brown truck stopped by and dropped off this box today, look what's inside.

It looks to be made with quality materials and measures 27 inches long.

it was covered in some lube, so started wiping right away.

It has very nice Wika gauge, which is very accurate. Manual says it handles 300 bar of pressure, but I only put in 220.

Pressure tube is removable, and if you push down on this long nipple you will bleed the tube from air.

Barrel is only 13 inches long and has moderator that is removable.

I will do more testing and review on it later and will update with more pictures and test results.

Looking forward to the review.
I take it you got it from Airgun heaven?
What’s the cost with shipping?

 

[shutik]

Yes, that is the only place I could find that had them in stock and would ship to USA.
Total cost with shipping and PayPal fee was $815

 

[Mauipilikia]

Dang, that looks really nice!
nice and compact but not bullpup.
im looking foreward to seeing your groups!!

 

[shutik]

I guess more of the semi-compact carbine, rather then true bullpup. It's point of balance is right at the trigger blade.
Here is a picture of it next to impact 177 with shroud collapsed.

Also came with two magazines that fit 12 pellets each.
Magazines have anti-double load prevention, very easy to load and can fit long pellets.

Will post first target soon.

$815 for a "Mini-Carbine"/"Semi-Bullpup" in .177 sounds fantastic. When the temps warm up please let us know how it does for you.
Nice lines and I like the forward cocking arm on the right, me being a lefty.

looks like a really cool gun how's it shooting 

 

[shutik]

So far I shot it only inside and at 10 meter it shoots exactly where it is aimed. It balances very well.
It is a lot of snow outside and I would like to test her at 55 yards outside.
I took action out of the stock and adjusted a trigger, it was too light for my liking.
Found spring tension adjuster that is lockable with grub screw.
Also found that it is regulated. Regulator is inside the tube, will have to test to see drop off point.

Nice rifle, I have the .22 cal one, which is slightly longer than yours, they shoot as good as any high end gun on the market, these guns have a awesome accuracy, smooth cocking and the mag cycles nicely too, you will love the gun more and more.
Congrats, it is a nice gun.

Nice, let us know the shot count please. Looks to be similar to the Hatsan design with valve also in tube.

Very few reviews in English but I found this hunting video. the guy did quite well with the rifle. Cool that it is regulated

 

[BigTinBoat]

Here he is with a target grouping test. 1.39" group in wind at 100m off bag isn't too bad. Love to see the .177 doing that.

 

[NMshooter]

Really looks like an excellent buy and under a grand! Do you have any idea what kind of barrel it has? Lothar Walther, Hammer forged?

It has steel barrel with 12 grooves. It is not chocked. It is made internally by the same company that makes the rifle.

I get about 80 shots from 250 bar to 120 bar

Edit: Corrected to not chocked.

 

[Osprey1]

Looks like a well made airgun,what kind of velocity are you getting for out of box performance?

 

[douger]

I have one on the way, kinda... the exchange of info seems to be slow but I'm in no rush. I've had one in a cart at one place or another (mostly as a way to keep tabs on them since I knew most wouldn't ship to the US) since a retailer contacted me about one as an alternative to a mutant. That was many months ago and there has been no word on importing them from the retailer so...

The one on the way is from AirgunHeaven. I like the rifle versions they have too. I'll add my 3 cents if/when I get it.

This is great. When you get it let us know, I want to come over and check it out.

 

[JCD]

Rob, I'll let you know. Don't think you're much of a .177 guy but you can certainly explore the one I have on the way.
